Okay I’m supposed to be studying for the economics lecture test tomorrow, but I shall just take a break and update this forgotten blog.

Last week we had a particular GP lesson that was particularly fruitless. (Okay sometimes we do have useful GP lessons, SOMETIMES, but that is beside the point.) Our dear GP tutor forgot to censor some sexual references in the article he distributed to the class, and this caused a lot of fun for the guys and a lot of discomfort for the girls in general.

The guys kept laughing at porn jokes and sexual references such that it got rather annoying. To us girls, those jokes aren’t even humorous. We just ignored the guys and tried to continue with the task that we had been given, but it was seriously getting on our nerves the way the guys kept laughing and making silly and undesirable comments.

The guys came up with all kinds of sick jokes and stuff and started laughing like hyenas. HYENAS. The way they laughed made me feel very scared. It gave me the feeling that I was surrounded by predators. Especially when I looked at the way some of my classmates laughed.

Guys will be guys in the aspect that they are curious about this kind of thing at this age. Of course, we are all learning about the world as we grow up, but there is really no need to kick up such a fuss about stuff that falls into this area. We are mature enough to know about this stuff, and keep it in mind but move on. But some guys simply find fun out of this whole topic and talk about it non-stop in such crude ways. They don’t even censor any of this crap when they know that there are girls in the room, and girls generally find such talk quite disturbing. Moreover, it is a lesson after all. Such talk should be kept for after school with guys only. The whole lesson was simply wasted talking about porn and sex.

Some guys don’t realize that they have graduated from high school and moved into JC. Why do I say this? Because they don’t know how to be sensitive due to the fact that there are girls around. They are no longer in an all-guys environment where they can talk about anything they want with no restraint. Yet they behave like nothing has changed. They may have intellect, to be able to come to JC, but they sure lack the EQ.
I don’t know what else to say. Do guys only really mature after they go into the army? But in the army, it is an all-male environment once again. Will this kind of thing really go away?

Fortunately there are some guys who know how to be tactful around girls. And I am very thankful for that. If I had to hang out with nothing but hyenas every day, I’d turn into one myself before long.

Hmm another thing that bothers me about some guys is how racist they can be. I heard from someone that HC guys seem to be known for that trait in general. HAHA for this I can only shake my head in disappointment and wonder when guys will really mature.
